Spicer Posted 6 January 2019 Share Posted 6 January 2019 (edited) I think James is getting a harsh treatment. He and Choudary have stopped anything coming through them (all Newport attacks have come from a long ball or cross) and has had a few good passes. Is he great? No. But I don't think he's been dreadful. They both lack creativity however. Defense has been poor, struggling to handle long balls.

Hes picked a strong team and the players are massively letting him, the fans and the club down. Horror show of a 1st half and shows the likes of Ghezzal, Okazaki and Iheancho have nothing to offer our club and need moving on asap. Iheancho may bemoan lack of service but his lack of movement and effort makes it difficult to support him. Our lack of movement in the final 3rd is shocking! How can it not be Puel's fault, yet has selected players that have nothing to offer? It's time to strap on a pair, make 3 subs and rescue this tie. Needs to make 8.

Ghezzal yes but who do we pick over Iheancho? Or would you risk injury to our prized asset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfox Posted 6 January 2019 Share Posted 6 January 2019 You say not Puels fault and this team is strong on paper. But They dont even look like they know each others ****in names never mind be able to play good football with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hejammy Posted 6 January 2019 Share Posted 6 January 2019 I can't see how this is Puels fault. The team he has selected on paper should be more than capable. They should take a long hard look at themselves at half time. Some of them have been a joke.... (and no not the same way Hamza said it!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a lot of time for Shinji but a natural goal scorer he is not. That one he put straight into the defenders chest, you’d expect to be put in on a Sunday down Vicky park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fazzyfox Posted 6 January 2019 Share Posted 6 January 2019 I can see what Ghezzal was thinking with that touch on the edge of the box, the opposition would be expecting a first time shot so he teed it up instead, unfortunately he overhit it, they read it, and he looked a mug. My message to him though would be this - don't try anything ambitious and flashy, just get a clean contact on it when for the previous 40 minutes everything you've tried hasn't come off. Go back to basics and then build on it, the ball is your friend not your enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes time to build a squad. Hes built a good starting 11 but we know we need more strength in depth. Anyone who says we should have started our first 11 today is an idiot! Real life football isnt like football manager, you cant ship out half your squad and replace them all in one window!

To many to pick from, James, Morgan also had a very poor half, there’s 5 out of 11, the others haven’t put themselves about either, very, very poor team, and performance all round, puel does need to make changes at half time, not 80 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloudFox Posted 6 January 2019 Share Posted 6 January 2019 Just now, lcfceaves said: I get that and was thinking the same, but who should take the blame? Mostly manager I think For me, it's the players. They were lumping it forward for long periods, which isn't Puel's game, and that still wasn't working. There's no movement up front, and that's solely on the front 3 or 4. Puel can't push them around the pitch, they do actually have to make runs!!
